Publish on CPAN?

Hi, this looks like an amazing piece of work. Have you thought of putting it on CPAN?

Thanks. I have periodically contemplated a CPAN release, but the module documentation is sorely lacking. What little POD exists is very much out of date.

I'm open to suggestions for automatic generation of things such as method names, though.

Generation of docs for method names, you mean? :-)

I do indeed... s/of things/for things/

I would be happy to contribute incredibly minimal docs that just grepped out attributes and methods and listed them. Let me know if that would be enough for you to feel happy putting this on CPAN. I feel that if the tests are comprehensible and/or there are example programs, detailed API docs are just a nice-to-have. I would advocate not letting the perfect be the enemy of a material improvement :-)

That sounds good to me. PRs are welcome.
